Transmission: The best torrent client for OSX.Us Windows switchers are used to modding everything, so this is a fabulous tool. TinkerTools: To modify the many system preferences in your OSX that should have been made tinker-able but are not.
#RCDEFAULTAPP REVIEW INSTALL#
The best part: CleanApp has a "Logging" service that keeps track of whatever you install, and then knows in granular detail everything that you need to uninstall later you can enable and disable this logging service at will, so it is useful to keep it generally off and only switch it on before you are undertaking a serious install of software, such as Final Cut Pro from Apple for example. CleanApp 3 tells you all the associated trappings of these applications and allows you to uninstall them all together.CleanApp is not free, alas (there is always a poor man's AppCleaner, which does some basic stuff) but it allows for much more granular control. Many applications (think Adobe) install several things in several locations.
#RCDEFAULTAPP REVIEW MAC#
Don't believe for a minute when the OSX manuals tell you that on a Mac all you need to do is drag the application into the Trash and you're done.
CleanApp: The best application uninstaller out there, hands down. Of course if you get really frustrated there's always the tried and tested VLC Player. If you want to be really equipped, get the Divx codec, the 3ivx, and Flip4Mac which plays wmv (Windows Media Player) files on your Mac. Suddenly your Quicktime (and iTunes) will be able to play a whole raft of video formats. There's a nice video tutorial here that shows how easy it is to install and then forget it. Perian: No Mac should be without this. Butler: Another small utility with a negligible footprint that allows for some nifty shortcuts to stuff already on your machine. RCDefaultApp is the application that allows you to do that superbly, and then some. On Mac OSX, we do have the same right-click contextual menu as Windows that allows "Open with " and "Make this the default application", but for some reason this doesn't always work, and occasionally doesn't even show up as an option. RCDefaultApp: Just as it is on any OS from Windows to Ubuntu, it often happens that you would like to associate certain file types with certain applications. Allow (or Deny) it to connect only once, or until the application quits, or Forever. Great flexibility in allowing the program to connect to a server, a port, or in general.
Little Snitch: Tells you everytime some program on your machine wants to "call home" and connect to some server. Sometimes, if you have the pleasure of experiencing a situation when the Trash won't clean because OSX says that the "Application is still in use" but you're sure you quit it and it's not live anyway, MainMenu's "Force Empty Trash" is a fabulous tool to have at your fingertips. Better than most other tools I have tried for this purpose, especially in its clean interface. Creates a neat little menu item on the top bar. Voalá, everything plain-text based is now being opened in sublime.Update: Here's a great list of things to do. Restart MacOS so the system recreates .plistĭefaults write / LSHandlers -array-add ''. Removed the ~/Library/Preferences//.plist. In my case I have been already using Sublime for some longer time with previous releases and also with previous MacOS releases.
In my case it says it's com.sublimetext.4 (depends on the version of the sublime you have installed.) I've checked the CFBundleIdentifier inside of the /Applications/Sublime Text.app/Contents/ist So I had previous sublime entries inside of it and I think that were the confusion was coming from. I think it's due to mixed entries in ~/Library/Preferences//.plist I had the same problem on Big Sur 11.6.1 - Intel
